Connections

Firebird

Set up a Firebird connection in the workspace for the database actions to use.

Firebird

Connects a Firebird database to the workspace. The Firebird database actions in your robots use this connection.

Firebird offers two connection modes: a local file and a remote server. Pick one in the Connection type field at the top of the form.

Local file​

Use this when the database file is on the same machine that will run the robot.

Path to the local file​

The full path to the database's .fdb file.

Example:

C:\Systems\DATABASE.FDB

User​

The username to authenticate against the database with.

Password​

That user's password.


Remote server​

Use this when the database is on a server reachable over the network.

Host​

The Firebird server's IP address or name.

Example: 192.168.0.1

Port​

The port to connect to the Firebird server on. The default is 3050.

Database​

The database's name or path on the remote server.

User​

The username to authenticate against the database with.

Password​

That user's password.


Using it in the Designer​

For a robot to use this connection, add the Firebird - Connection action to the flow. In the action's settings, pick the connection saved in the workspace. Later Firebird actions (query, insert, update and the rest) use it automatically.
